LIFE IN THIS GHANA VILLAGE IS BEAUTIFUL | FARMING, COOKING GHANA FOOD.. | LIVING IN GHANA
Currently still exploring the eastern region of Ghana. In this video I spent sometime in a village called Gyakiti, just about 1hour from Akosombo. We spent sometime with Ghanaian family on their farm and then went home to cook some delicious Ghana food with the produce we got on the farm. Hope this gives you an idea on what life in an African village is like, especially for people who want to consider moving to Ghana.

My name is Jasmine and I have relocated from Sydney Australia to Ghana in west Africa as of the year 2020.
My parents are of Ghanaian descent and so am I although I was born in Australia. Here on my channel, my goal is to give you a real glimpse into what it’s like to live in Ghana, from the Ghanaian food, to the Ghanaian culture, to the Ghanaian lifestyle and everything in between. My goal is to satisfy your curiosity about Ghana and help inspire to explore Ghana.
My prayer is that these videos do just that for several African’s in the diaspora.
Follow your bliss because life is short, follow your bliss because human life has no intrinsic value, follow your bliss because everything happens for the greater good and follow your bliss because it has all happened before.

Hi jasmine. I am from USA. I enjoy your videos. Love be there in Africa one day. Live there I hope. Thanks for showing different locations there. Thank for what you do.

Life in the village is peaceful, but very hard for the villagers. There is usually no running water or electricity . They do eat well but as this woman points out they cant eat yam and corn only ,they need meat and fish and other things that they cannot grow. Also they need clothing ,toiletries , school fees for their children. If they are lucky with this kind of small farming they might make $30-70/month ! I enjoy spending time in my village in Nigeria ,but that is because my parents home has a bore hole and a generator .When I stayed with my uncle and had to use a pit latrine and drank water from the stream I got really sick!

[@dramaluvamens9313]

Luckily, only about 15% of Ghanaian villages have water and electricity issues if government statistics are to be believed. Some villagers cannot afford paying electric bills and are not connected to the grid. Some villages also have potable water but it is may be far from home.

[@ask_why000]

@@dramaluvamens9313 With all that sun, I wonder why the government doesn't make use of a solar based system...

[@dramaluvamens9313]

@@ask_why000 There are a few solar based systems in the country. Like I mentioned, even if the electricity is brought into particular villages, inhabitants may not be financially solvent to pay the bills. Acquiring the poles and the meters come at an initial cost. The electricity company of Ghana has so many leakages in the system due to theft and serious non-payment issues with large institutions so much so that they have a hard time funding rapid expansion of access of electricity to needed communities.

Thanks Jasmine for sharing the lives of ordinary Ghanaians with us. Simple yet beautiful lifestyle... free from the pressures of city life. Yes, we can do more to improve accommodation, sanitation and general living standards in our villages but their peace of mind is priceless. I miss Ghana even though I was there a few months ago ! 😘 When I return permanently, I am staying away from Accra for sure... Love the rural lifestyle.

[@hahaha70263]

Great vid. Abuya and Aisha are siblings and they haven't seen each other in 5 years!? You should arrange for them to meet up. I remember the vid where you went to the northern savannah region of Ghana and met with another of Aisha's sisters. She was cute. It's great seeing traditional African farmers applying their trade and skills. It's a shame that most African governments do very little help them, improve agriculture and become food secure. Also, I think that Africans should start programs to domesticate the baobab tree. The boabab is partially domesticated, so they might as well go all out. P.S. I hope the save the plant scraps and burn some of them to make some 'Black Earth' compost.

It is good that some Ghanaians are keeping their family values. They don't want to have the problems of The USA and European countries which include strangers caring for their babies and elderly, bad fertility, credit debt, little family support and bonds, homelessness and drugs.
